Chapter 284 I am hated by everyone
Su Qianqian looked at her empty hands and breathed a sigh of relief.
[Nowadays, you can’t do business without some talent! 】
Su Qianqian complained in her heart, but nodded with a smile on her face: "Okay, deal, Master Jiang can get as many tomatoes as you need from Cuiying Building."
"So Cuiying Tower and Huarong Pavilion belong to Madam Su?" Jiang Fan was a little surprised. He thought that Su Qianqian would buy them.
"It's just a small business, not worth mentioning. Then let me tell you the second thing. Lord Jiang, nine years ago, the old Marquis Wuning and his sons, along with 30,000 soldiers, died in Mount Xumi. There is something strange about this matter. Do you know?"
Su Qianqian put away her smile and turned serious.
Jiang Fan's smile also disappeared from his face. "Did Marquis Wu Ning find out anything? When I learned about this nine years ago, I went to the Northern Frontier in person, but Mingyue Tower didn't have a branch there, so I didn't get any useful information. Later, I escorted their coffins all the way back..."
Jiang Fan didn't say anything else.
[The Lord Jiang secretly escorted their coffins back to the capital, and all the subordinates of Mingyue Tower followed along the way. When the coffins were placed in the Wuning Marquis' Mansion, he managed to hold on until the burial, but then he vomited blood and became seriously ill. After recovering from the illness, his hair was completely white.
Mingyue Tower has not been active in the martial arts world since then, and the things they used to do to get angry with the Second Master have also stopped. They no longer have the heart to defend a city for one person. They just secretly investigate what happened that year, but have not gained much. 】
The system explained what Jiang Fan didn’t say.
[You still have to keep a mouth. The Qin family had no idea about what Jiang Fan did. They just thought that he had cut off all ties with the Qin family and have been holding a grudge against the Second Master. 】
Jiang Fan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Su Qianqian again, but did not ask anything.
“I did get some news. Before the old marquis entered Mount Xumi, he received an order from a herald, but the details of the order are unknown.
A few days ago was the anniversary of the death of the old marquis and the eldest and second uncles. An old soldier from the northern border who had been paying tribute to them secretly was brought back to the mansion by the marquis. This old soldier had served the marquis tea before, but he refused to say anything and did not admit that he had been in the northern border at that time. However, in the files of the Ministry of War, this old soldier had already died in battle. ”
Su Qianqian spoke while observing Jiang Fan's expression and did not reveal everything she knew.
Jiang Fan said nothing, just listened attentively. He felt colder and colder. Su Qianqian only regretted not holding a hand warmer.
"The decree, this decree is the real reason why my foster father led his troops through Mount Xumi to attack Daliang, but no one has ever mentioned it in all these years. My foster father has ever received any decree. Is this what Madam Su meant?"
Jiang Fan's voice sounded like it was hardened by ice.
"That's right. Although the Marquis and I are only speculating, the messenger and the document and token used to deliver the message have already provided evidence.
But this person died suddenly many years ago, and the remaining physical evidence cannot confirm the content of the decree. I would like to ask Master Jiang to help me find someone who remembered this incident at the Northern Frontier military camp or at the city gates along the way. ”
Jiang Fan pondered for a moment, raised his head and looked around: "Okay, Jiang also agreed to this. What do you want to exchange this time? I have to think about it carefully."
At this moment, Dianfeng suddenly whined twice and shook his head towards the hillside next to him.
"Is this... Madam's favorite pet?" Jiang Fan asked.
"That's right...but it can't be used as a condition for exchange. After all, I won't feel at ease to entrust this disabled puppy to the host." Su Qianqian hurriedly stopped Dianfeng from walking into the trap.
"Since Madam Su doesn't want to cause trouble for me, I'll send this exchange condition. When I remember it, I'll ask Madam for it again."
Jiang Fan slowly stood up, put the hood back on his head, and then said leisurely: "Madam Su, you certainly know who you have provoked, but you dare to come here alone and put yourself in danger. Jiang admires you."
"Master Jiang, although I came here alone, I am not alone. Have you forgotten the first thing you promised to do for me?" Su Qianqian blinked cunningly.
"I promised to help Madam Su clean up..." Jiang Fan paused here, only then did he realize what a troublesome thing he had agreed to.
"Madam Su, you cheated and actually plotted against me. Your cleverness is very much like Han Jue." Jiang Fan did not look angry, he even seemed to be smiling.
Su Qianqian did not refute and followed Jiang Fan down the mountain.
When we reached the dense woods on both sides of the mountain road, suddenly there was a sudden sound of wind in the forest, followed by the sound of swords clashing, the slight crackling of branches breaking, and the occasional muffled groan, which continued to come from the woods on both sides.
Jiang Fan was not moved at all and walked leisurely in front. Su Qianqian, Xue Ke and Dian Feng followed closely. Although Xue Ke was very nervous, he did not look as frightened as a child.
[My lady, there are not only Lu Jing's men in this forest. Those fighting together include people from Mingyue Tower, guards led by Qin Shiliu, and two groups of masked men, who are actually from Daliang! 】
The system explained the battle situation, but Su Qianqian did not expect that there were more people from Daliang joining the team.
[What are the people from Daliang doing here? Could it be that Prince Ping really wants to kill me? What did I do to him? That’s not right, two groups? Am I so hateful? Whose people are the other group? 】
Su Qianqian underestimated her own charm and didn't know whether she should be happy at this moment.
[These two groups of Daliang people fought in one place. One group was led by Prince Ping, and the other group... was actually sent by Prince An! 】
The system was also surprised.
[Prince An?] How could I be getting in the way of Prince An? It's true that others are the enchantress of everyone, but I am disliked by everyone. Even passers-by want to jump out and bite me! 】
Su Qianqian discussed with the system in her mind. Although she was a little confused, she was not too nervous. She would not put herself in danger easily, so she naturally made all the necessary arrangements. However, with the addition of Mingyue Tower, she had added another amulet.
[It is unknown why Prince An would send someone to kill you, but from now on, you will have to take the blame whenever you go out, and you never know when an arrow might shoot you from somewhere. 】The system is a bit gloating.
I don’t know if it was the system’s bad luck, but a feather arrow really shot towards Su Qianqian. Su Qianqian was well prepared and raised a small shield with a unique shape with a "swish".
But before the feather arrow could hit him, Jiang Fan in front seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. He casually swung the sleeve of his robe backwards, and the feather arrow was blown away by a strong wind, turned in a different direction and shot back even faster, followed by a scream.
Su Qianqian looked at her turtle-shaped small shield and felt a little sorry for missing this opportunity, as she had originally wanted to test its ability to resist attacks.
"Come on, don't play around too much." Jiang Fan continued to walk forward and said calmly, like a teacher calling out to a playful student.
"Yes, Brother Jiang, don't forget our agreement!" Su Qianqian tried to get closer to Jiang Fan while reminding him and quickly followed him.
